Captivix: An Innovative Approach to ERP

Rahul Maheshwary, CEO

“Innovation is change that unlocks new value.” This adage by an accomplished speaker and author Jamie Notter became and was the inspiration for Captivix and its team when they ventured into the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) space. Today the company has been commended for its novel approach. In the CEO Rahul Maheshwary’s words, “There are few things that separate the company from the rest of the market when it comes to ERP and other development solutions. Our innovative approach is one of those.” The team at Captivix is always thinking of new ways to make ERP implementations more seamless and adaptable for their clients. Moreover the company serves as the support system for its clients during tough circumstances and goes the extra mile to ensure there are no better solutions in the market.

Captivix is focused on redefining ERP solutions and emphasizes on being relevant in the market where technologies and solutions get outdated frequently. The company has thus developed mobile applications and platforms that interfaces with various ERP systems. For example, one of the common challenges that Captivix identified is that implementing a new ERP system often takes sales team away in intensive ERP trainings thereby slowing them down. In addition, sales people are often travelling, and may not always have connectivity on their laptops to service their clients.

This mobile application runs without the internet connection thereby eliminating the need of laptops and resolving connectivity issues. It integrates with the organization’s ERP system and enhances mobility. This not only saves money that a client invests in training it’s entire sales team but also makes their job effortless. In turn, sales team now focuses on its core tasks rather than dealing with the complexities of an ERP system.

The company has training modules, through which it helps organizations ensure that their employees make the best possible use of the ERP system. The company has also started investing in creating online quizzes and interactive e-learning modules to help users better trained with the ERP systems.

Captivix, as a Microsoft Partner, implements Microsoft Dynamics NAV, Dynamics AX, and other Microsoft solutions for its clients. In 2012, when cloud hosted ERP solutions were not widely available, Captivix helped a client address a major concern by implementing ERP on cloud. The solution was implemented for a forward looking company, which wasn’t willing to spend on maintaining a server room and dedicated maintenance team to support firewalls and expensive hardware. Captivix then stepped in and helped the client implement Microsoft Dynamix AX on Azure.

The firm, in a very short span of time has seen enormous increase in the number of clients. This is an outcome of the consistent efforts and support from Captivix’s employees who hold extensive industry experience. Captivix continuously works towards further training them so that they are updated with the latest technologies in the market. The firm also has an innovation studio where employees gather knowledge about the latest technologies and implement it first within the company and then for its clients.

Maheshwary illustrates that Captivix aspires to grow steadily and improve the quality of their services rather than growing swiftly and compromising on the quality of services. Although the firm provides both ERP and software development solutions, in future, they plan to focus on integrating their innovative solutions to improvise the ERP system as a whole.
